    Most likely fight for De La Hoya?

    Anyone care to guess where Oscar goes from here?

    DLH - vs. Tito, Wright/Mosley winner, or just retires?

    I can see him taking some time off to regroup, but where does he go once he's ready to fight again. I still think he has a few good fights left in him and there could be some interesting matchups ahead if he decides to pursue anyone at the top of the 154 or 150 category.

    He'll fight Vargas. Then the loser of Wright-Mosley.
    Maybe Mayorga or Forrest, as long as both look terible in their return bouts.

      The only guy I want to see Oscar in with is tito, Oscar recognizes that there is unfinished business, how come tito and papa tito don't. They act like they beat Oscar up so bad that a rematch is pointless. So what if he has not looked like a great fighter in his last few outings papa tito, the majority of the boxing world still thinks tito was beaten in the first fight, and through eight rounds it looked like two fighters on two different levels. Oscar vs. Tito....other than that who cares.

      It is a very good question though, where does Oscar go? if not tito I think he could outbox ouma, maybe Kassim is the next guy.

        Oscar would NEVER face a guy like Ouma....a tough-ass lefty who is high-risk & low-reward.

          Ding, ding, ding! I think he'd come back to 154 and try for Santos, probably. He won't fight Mosley again, Winky would beat his pants off, Forrest would KO his ass, Ouma is too much of a risk and would probably beat him, too.

          I'd say Mayorga or Santos are the best shots for ODLH right now.

            What do you think of tito v. oscar and why it has not happened in the last few years and why it won't happen know public relations boxing fan.

            Jab-I agree that Ouma would be a high risk low reward type fight but I think it is a belt that Oscar can easily win. Granted Ouma is a lefty but look at his fights, everyone he fights comes straight at him and dukes it out, phone booth syle. Oscar would build an early lead on the cards and Ouma would have to come come come and then keep coming hoping that the legendary fade of hoya would happen. But on paper I think this is a very winnable fight for oscar.

            Tito why not make 20-30 million, maybe it's cause you understand like all of us cult fans do that styles make fights and your style is not right for goldie. And by losing two this hispanic wannabbee it would hurt your public relation boxing fans out there way too much. I mean Puerto Rican boxing fans, sorry I got confused what PR meant.

              Sure....Oscar COULD win against Ouma.
              But, Oscar isn't into COULD unless there's a really big dollar amount attatched to it.

              Oscar cannot beat Trinidad at this stage.
              Oscar is too hittable...& doesn't have the legs to RUN the whole fight.
              Plus, if that arm punch to his SIDE, from Hop, dropped him.....I can't see him taking a Tito left down there.

                I don't know if Vargas will ever fight DLH again. Still it would be at 160 so maybe it's a better deal for Vargas. Jab, Who would u give an edge to if ever there's a rematch (160).

                    I think a Vargas fight will be his next move.
